Spam 'likes' keep appearing despite lack of 'like' button
-
Spammers starting liking some of my posts so I hid the ‘like’ button from public view. But I’m still getting spam likes. How is this possible? When I check to make sure the like button is indeed not visible, everything looks like I want it to. Thanks in advance.

Got it, thank you!
The message you received is from another blog not related to me. When I created my account, I found out after the fact that I couldn’t use the same account name for my blog. So my blog is a modification: culturalxcision.wordpress.com
